OndadeMar Swimwear Simply Diva 2008 Collection

September 24, 2008 by Brenda

Not only has OndadeMar exceeded our expectations with their aptly named Simply Diva 2008 collection but they have also opened a new store in Miami Beach, Florida. Luxury, handmade swimsuits, with a Latin flair, has been the hallmark of OndadeMar since its inception in 1999. Headquartered in Columbia, South America, the OndadeMar label is recognized throughout the whole world

Their newest swimwear collection is divided into four groups including ONDADEMAR, LUXE, OdM and KIDS. “Lunatic” from the ONDADEMAR group is an exciting one piece style. Not your average one piece mind you, it is conservatively cut out in sections showing just enough skin to produce a tantalizing image. Superior, flamboyant fabrics add to the allure of the overall brand.

The “Black Pearl” bikini from the LUXE collection is refined and delicate with its wispy frayed fringes around the cups of the breast and the panty legs. “Polished” is a gold metallic fabric reminiscent of the old movie stars with high brief bottoms and bandeau top. A huge tie, which adds to the glamour, finishes off the front of the top and the bottoms. What makes this suit really special is the fact that the bottoms are connected to the swimsuit top on the sides. In reality, this is a one piece with the illusion of a two piece.

All about creating eye-catching, glamourous designs, OndadeMar was listed as one of the top twelve swimwear labels by Fortune magazine in 2005. Rightly so, as mediocrity is not in this designer’s vocabulary. Each year, Pily Queipo masterfully creates new details and uses different adornments to design the most beautiful and ostentatious collection ever. Indeed it must be challenging to creatively outdo oneself year after year!

Dolce V – Upscale Lingerie Retail

March 15, 2008 by Rene

Dolce V is a new designer lingerie store. Unlike the upscale designer selling their own wares, Dolce V is offering a broad range of designers including Adorisadora, Anna and Boy, Beau Bra, Belabumbum, Chantelle, Cosabella, Damaris, Fauve, Fleur T, Freya, Guia La Bruna, Huit, Margherita Mazzei, Mimi Holliday, Miss Mandalay, Nearly Nude, Ondademar, Princesse Tam Tam, Verde Veronica, and Verdissima. Some of these designers are very hard to find and currently Dolce V is the sole online retailer of Adorisadora.

dolcev_fit.jpgLucia Mizzoni hopes that Dolce V “will become addictive; one of those little secrets you will want to share with all your friends even though a side of you will want to keep it for yourself only!” Lucia Mizzoni spent nearly 8 years as the marketing manager of L’Oreal UK. Before L’Oreal she had a distinguished education including a Fullbright scholarship in 1998 for International Relations at Syracuse University. The Dolce V business started in January of 2008 and the online shop launched shortly there after. Head over to Dolce V and join their club for free. You’ll get a satin tape measure so you can measure your own bust and make sure you are getting the best fit. When you get your tape measure, use the Dolce V bra size calculator with three simple steps. Once you know your size, Dolce V handily offers a way to search their store for your size. If you are a fuller figured women, you may find that Dolce V offers a decent selection through 38E or 38F via brands like Freya and Fauve. I imagine that with early success, Dolce V will offer even more sizes in the future.The site is easy to navigate and offers search to help find pieces that interest you.

dolcev_before.jpgEach designer is broken out as a search filter and you can also shop by occasion or department. This level of flexibility is often skipped as some retail sites don’t break out by designer or don’t offer search. Dolce V offers tips for men and a break out section focusing on hot trends including a short Flash video. Unlike many online lingerie retailers, Dolce V offers free returns, so you can buy with the extra confidence that returns won’t be a hurdle.

dolcev_after.jpgOne feature of the site I haven’t seen before is integrated zooming. Many sites open another window and launch a separate client to zoom in on details. Dolce V is using a technique to keep the zooming inside the same screen as the product details. When you land on a product page, you will see a medium size picture and two thumbnails. As the page loads, a larger version of the thumbnails is downloaded in the background. You can use the medium size picture to zoom in on details and use the thumbnails to change the picture. Besides having some great designers, I think this zoom feature makes online shopping easier and for now, makes Dolce V different than their competitors.

Lucia is offering a discount code DOLCE108L for 10% off. Go over to the site and buy some goodies.
